RE: DU suitcase shipment (reply) - "radiation signature"

["Kent, Michael D." <Michael.Kent@nmcco.com>]

OTOH, even if it would, it begs the question, what are we doing to remotely

detect shipments of smallpox, anthrax, ebola, sarin, etc.?  We could bring

international commerce to a halt and thoroughly inspect every single

shipment through every single port, but I expect the cure would be worse

than the disease in that case.

===========================





Some of these listed items would not even have to be smuggled in.  Take your terrorist willing to die, give them smallpox, Ebola, etc., and let them fly till they drop, literally.  That would spread the disease like wildfire.



My own opinion.
